Electronics Design Engineer

Qontrol Systems

I have: - Developed next-generation electronics to control integrated photonic systems, and some core mixed-signal circuitry to implement this. I have designed industry-quality DFM PCBs for large-scale production. - Programmed low-level C firmware to control mixed-signal chips. - Designed, prototyped and led to production low-noise switch-mode power circuitry circuits alongside analogue filtering. - Supported customers and helped them solve implementation or novel-application problems using our systems. - Mantained the Python API for our customers.

Electronics Design Engineer Intern

Qontrol Systems

During my internship, I designed a customer-facing electronic product to extend our product range. It involved USB-C design, PCB design, and integration with previous products. I also began working on next-generation analogue and digital electronic systems for next-generation commercial integrated photonics controllers. This involved mixed-signal circuit and PCB design.

Systems Integration Intern

Illumina

I designed and built an optical microscope electronic controller. I did the conceptual design, circuit prototyping, software integration, and full assembly. The controller performs auto-focusing and flow-cell imperfection detection. I developed the C++ control library, MATLAB-C++ API, and custom UI. Verified that the controller reliably performs auto-focused line scans with <1.5% error rate.

Engineering Intern

Copa Airlines

Made the special entry and exit maintenance tasks database and wrote some related task cards for the new 737-MAX aircraft A-Check maintenance program. • Helped integrate maintenance teams’ feedback into more efficient repairs task organisations. • Migrated outdated engineering repair documents to the current maintenance requirements.

Robotics Design Intern

The Handwriting Company

I designed, built, and programmed the first fully-functional automatised handwriting robot used for fulfilling the initial letter orders (worth £5k+ before I left) . • Led a team of two more engineers during the second month to make improvements on the initial system. Did the firmware integration with the AI handwriting program developed by the CS lead. Manufactured four more machines that are still in operation (Oct-18).

Engineering Intern

Copa Airlines

-Assisted engineers in the following functions: Development of a new maintenance operation organisation and transferring equivalency between previous planned aircraft repairs to the new efficient system packages. -Preparation of technical aircraft repair documentation from EMBRAER into the Copa Airlines system. -Inspections of aircraft avionics, structural, interior, electrical and hydraulic systems and their repair preparation.

Undergraduate Faculty Representative of Engineering

University of Bristol

Elected by the undergraduate student body of the Faculty of Engineering to head student representation in administrative and academic matters. As co-chair of the faculty staff-student committee, I worked with course reps and administrative staff to solve issues such as: improving 3D printing services, creating a centralized events calendar, improving student societies collaboration by leading a societies committee, sustainability and welfare actions, proposing a room-booking app, supporting faculty refurbishments, listening by actively asking students for feedback, etc. I led the research and development of a 26-page proposal to improve feedback mechanisms within the faculty working alongside the senior faculty education academics, administrative staff, and an amazing group of course representatives. It was taken forward by three different academic/administrative levels of the university.

Project Coordinator

Bruvuno

I was the initial local project coordinator for a clean water Engineers Without Borders (EWB)-USA indigenous community development project in Cerro Muleto, Ngobe Bugle. I led logistics and communications between all organizations for the first 3 years of the project, and now it has been taken over by the Rotary Club NGO in David, Panama in partnership with the Technological University of Panama. Together we have done more than five implementation and research trips that have improved the water availability, quality, and lifestyle in this indigenous community in Panama. Along with our team of volunteers, we assisted the community to apply for this EWB-USA development project. The project is in collaboration with EWB-USA North-East Ohio, Rotary Club NGO, Technological University of Panama, local government, and community organizations. I have a mainly advisory role now.

Informed Vote Web Application

Developed an informed vote web application for the Panamanian national elections in partnership with Praxis News local journalists. We had over 10k+ visits and were featured in a large national newspaper. The web app consisted of displaying anti-corruption historical research, candidate profiles and voting guide manual. I worked in the React.js frontend, translated the journalists' concept to code, designed the backend schema, collaboratively integrated AWS S3, Django, and Axios, etc. See the frontend repo in Github.

Submarine Gromits for Grand Appeal 2

In support of the Bristol Grand Appeal 2 to fundraise money for the Bristol Royal Infirmary, the Faculty of Engineering committed to make two interactive Gromits with the submarine theme as in the news article. I designed and built the camera periscope assembly through which both Gromits sent the video input to each other, and helped manufacture the the internal structure assembly to sustain the weight of the modifications, the porthole, tubing and internal cabling.
